Each urban unit/area should be equipped to reuse/recycle the waste through efficient treatment plants with self generating revenues.

Please innovate at the planning stage that each unit/area of the urban development is self reliant on basics like water, electricity ( renewal),school, hospital, sanitation, training centers, banking, one stop representative government offices, parking area, malls, tip top municipality offices, traffic signals, cctv, digital bulletin boards, digital road signage, site map, contact details of municipality officers, penalty for violations of city rules, declarations from citizen/officers etc.

On all Major Roads in every City in India Public Toilets are rarely found causing great inconvenience to every Citizen, specially to Senior Citizens. Due to this reason passers by or Motorists openly stands for nature call whenever require. But Ladies can't do even this also. It is suggested that at least on every Major Roads in every City more and more number of Public Toilets must be constructed , if require the fund of MP / MLA may be used as announced by our beloved Prime Minister

Free all the land from encroachment. Make every official or any other individual accountable & punished for their direct or indirect role in the encroachment. Set a definite and specific target within a specified time frame for the state governments also along with the repercussions or consequences for failure to achieve so.
